England newcomer Adam Wharton is set to remain at Crystal Palace despite significant interest from Bayern Munich, Manchester City, and Real Madrid. The £18 million midfielder, 20, has expressed his contentment in Oliver Glasner’s squad, focusing on his development. Wharton joined Palace from Blackburn in February and quickly made an impact, featuring in 16 matches as the Eagles finished 10th in the Premier League.
His impressive performances earned him a first senior England call-up and a spot in the Three Lions’ Euro 2024 squad, though he has yet to play in their run to the final against Spain. Wharton still has five years left on his contract at Selhurst Park. In other news, Palace are eyeing Plymouth keeper Michael Cooper, who is in the final year of his contract. The 24-year-old kept six clean sheets in 19 Championship appearances last season.
Cooper’s potential arrival would add competition for Dean Henderson and Sam Johnstone. Manager Oliver Glasner has been active this summer, signing defender Chadi Riad from Real Betis and Japanese midfielder Daichi Kamada. Additionally, Michael Olise recently completed a £49.5 million move to Bayern Munich.
